Bahrainis saw on the television what was going on in Tunisia and how the Tunisian people had successfully forced Zine Abidine ben Ali, the Tunisian "President" out of office. This inspired them to combat the injustices in their society, namely that the Sunni minority had legal rights and privileges that the Shiite majority did not. Shiite Bahrainis began to protest for an end to the discrimination, using facebook and twitter to coordinate where and when they were going to protest.

What was the 2011 conflict in Bahrain?

The 2011 uprising in Bahrain was part of the overall Arab Spring and was an attempt by Bahrain's disenfranchised Shiite majority to force the Sunni monarchy to give them equal employment and housing rights. The Bahraini King requested assistance from the Saudi Kings and the two countries' armies forcibly crushed the protests. Shiite Bahrainis remain in a second-class status in Bahrain.
